The univer­ sity will in this way obtain one of the largest and most up to date college foun­ dries in the world. The building is a brick and timber structure 200x70 feet in size. It has a pleasing design, the effect of which is enhanced by the Denny-Renton building pavers which also add stability to a fair example of modern foundry construction. The windows are unusually large, occupy­ ing 90 per cent of the wall space and the ventilation through the roof is ample. The main doors are large enough to ad­ mit a box car. The foundry proper is 70x 100 feet, the other half of the building being devoted to engine room and ex­ hibits. The central bay, spanned by a 10-ton traveling crane, is 30 feet wide, ihe crane was built by the mechanical engmenng department of the University ot Washington.

LIGHTNESS

Kinnear Pressed Radiators weigh one-third as much as cast iron, thus saving cartage and expense in handling. The car­ rying load of the building must also be considered in the relief of the floor strains by saving of dead weight.

Quoting from the History of the Singer Building, Page 65: "The amount of weight saved in this building by the installation of Kinnear Pressed Radiators instead of cast iron radiators was 509,500 pounds, or nearly 155 tons."

Kinnear Pressed Metal Radiators occupy one-half to three-fifths of the space of c.st-iron radiators.
